Chapter 1425: Bookworm Xu Que

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“What knowledge?” Buttface froze.

Everyone present looked blankly at Xu Que.

“Don’t you know that speed can increase power? Based on precise calculations, we can accurately increase the power we need to an exact value so that we can break the ground but not affect the layer of ice on the lake,” Xu Que explained as he smiled at everyone.

Everyone was confused. They didn’t understand what Xu Que was talking about, but it sounded like it could be very powerful.

“Wait for me for a moment.” Xu Que smiled as he stole a glance at the number of Acting Tough Points on the System interface. It still needed tens of thousands of points before it could meet the conditions for an upgrade.

“In fact, the principle is very simple. Assume that a stone falls from the top of a mountain with a small amount of force. As the distance it’s falling increases, so too the power generated by the stone will gradually increase, and...”

“Oh!”

As Xu Que was explaining this principle, he suddenly pinched his fingers together and accumulated a stream of Celestial Core Power. Using his finger as a pen, he started to write confidently on the ground.

“According to the principle of momentum, if the rock rushes down from the high level as fast as possible, then at the moment of contact with the ground it will have the greatest force.

“In order to facilitate this calculation, let’s ignore the impulse from the ground. The time taken for the force to take action is roughly 0.1 second. It can also be verified from calculations that the magnitude of the impulse is insignificant compared with the magnitude of the momentum. Therefore, the following formula can be written like this: Mv = (M+m)*v1,v1=(M/M+m)*v.

“Coming in contact with the ground could be either with a fist or foot. The friction is very small, hence it doesn’t need to be included in the calculation. Let’s set the force on the ground to F1. When I land with the fastest speed, I reach the maximum traction and balance with my own resistance. Thus, the traction can be kept constant as it is offset by the resistance. Then the above formula can be solved like this: 2F1 =(M+m)*a,F1=(M*M/4L(M+m))*V2.

“When landing, the speed is V2. From the momentum theorem, we can get (2f2-mg) * t2 = mv2.

“Then, the ideal way of stepping on the ground, with uniform deceleration and ignoring friction, can be represented by the formula: h =(v2/2)*t2.

“Through this formula, we can substitute the highest altitude I can fly to and the speed of my descent...”

.....

At that moment, Xu Que quickly wrote a bunch of dense formulas on the ground. ????????????r????????????. ????om

Everyone was looking at him blankly, dumbstruck. No one could understand these formulas. “The magnitude of impulse? Conservation of momentum?” These were all words they’d never heard before.

Only Buttface seemed to understand what was going on. He stared at Xu Que, shocked, and he shouted loudly, “I know, this is the knowledge from Earth. It’s physical mechanics. Brother Xue is on the way to becoming a bookworm. Everyone, clap. If you don’t clap, you’re not Chinese.”

Everyone, hearing that, although they still didn’t understand what was going on, followed through with thunderous applause.

Xu Que suddenly stopped calculating and retracted his fingers. A smile could be seen at the corners of his mouth. “I’ve finished. The final result is that the speed of 1,310.12 meters per second is enough to break the ground, without affecting the lake ice.”

HISS!

Suddenly, everyone in the audience took in a sharp breath of cold air.

“What’s going on?”

“Is this for real?”

“Can he actually deduce such a precise number from these incomprehensible runes?”

DING! “Congratulations to Host Xu Que for successfully Acting Tough. You’ve won 20,000 Acting Tough Points!”

DING! “Congratulations to Host Xu Que for successfully Acting Tough. You’ve won 50,000 Acting Tough Points!”

“Ha, ha, ha!” Xu Que’s eyes became very bright with happiness.

This wasn’t all for nothing. Not only was the problem of entering the ground solved, but the Acting Tough Points had also been obtained. It was enough to upgrade the System version, and he even had excess Acting Tough Points to splurge with.

“System, quickly, upgrade now...”

Xu Que immediately called out the System interface and, shifting his state of mind, prepared to let the System start upgrading.

However, at this moment, Zixia Fairy, who had been standing silently by his side concentrating on the Ice Lake, suddenly said, “There’s no need to go down.”

“What?” Xu Que was startled.

The crowd also looked at her in confusion.

Zixia Fairy pointed at the white flames in the center of the coffins, looked at Xu Que, and said calmly, “I just passed through the flames with the Orbs Spell and saw a young woman whose bone age is about the same as yours. She is practicing in the center of the flames. If I’m correct, she is accepting the inheritance of skill right now. If you dig down, you’ll be harming her.”

“.....” Hearing her words, everyone in the audience froze.

“This meant that Miss Lin had really found the place of the inheritance of skill, and she was accepting the inheritance of skill.”

“Oh, my god. If this is the case, this place is really not dangerous.”

“So what Faction Leader Xu calculated just now...was useless?”

Everyone’s gazes subconsciously turned toward Xu Que, and they fell silent.

DING! “The operation was going as fierce as a tiger, but, at a glance, the record is zero. After judgment, the Host’s Acting Tough operation has failed, and the System retracts the special reward!”

At the same time, in Xu Que’s mind, a notification also sounded: the Acting Tough Points had been reduced by 50,000 points!

Sh*t!

Xu Que was unhappy and felt as if he wanted to punch himself. But punching himself wouldn’t hurt the System, so he just let it go. Fortunately for Xu Que, the System had only retracted the special reward of 50,000 Acting Tough Points, and the Acting Tough Points that had been awarded in front of the crowd were not retracted.

After all, what he’d done had really shocked everyone, and, even if it had been unnecessary in the end, the System couldn’t retract the Acting Tough Points.

Coincidentally, it just happened that with the increase of these Acting Tough Points, Xu Que’s total Acting Tough Points had now reached more than 2.57 million. In order for the System to upgrade from version 10.0 to version 11.0, the required Acting Tough Points were 2.556 million points. Once the System upgraded, Xu Que would only be left with about 10,000 Acting Tough Points. Poor Xu Que!

It wasn’t possible not to upgrade. The System version was too far behind and hadn’t been much help lately. Only by upgrading it to version 11.0 would it be qualitatively better.

Xu Que wasn’t clear about what the new System would look like after upgrading, but he was looking forward to it.

“System, start upgrading the new version. I hope version 11.0 will not disappoint me,” Xu Que said to the System.

This was the only way to go. If he didn’t upgrade, Xu Que wouldn’t have the confidence to continue to do whatever he wanted. Even if he knew that it was most important for him to become strong, he also realized that if he had the opportunity to upgrade the system and didn’t take that opportunity, he’d be letting himself down.

DING! “2.56 million Acting Tough Points have been depleted. The System is successfully upgraded. The estimated time required is ten days.”

“Ten days?”

After Xu Que received this notification from the System, a smile broke out on his face.

By the time he’d be ready to return to the Heaven Continent, the System would’ve finished upgrading. At that time, it would be version 11.0, which he was really looking forward to.

However, the key issue now was still...

Xu Que’s gaze once again returned to the Heaven Fire Ice Lake in front of him.

He also had the ability to use the Orbs Spell, but no matter how much Celestial Core Power he gathered, he still couldn’t see through the lake to the white flames, let alone see Lin Yuxi’s figure.

“What does the woman you see look like?” Xu Que asked Zixia Fairy. He wanted to determine whether the person who was accepting the inheritance of skill was in fact Lin Yuxi.

“She looks like...” Zixia Fairy frowned slightly, pondered a little, and raised her head to look at Xu Que, saying earnestly, “She doesn’t look as good as me!”
